Oh, my, I don't know... I don't know... My mind's on other things these days, so it's not likely. What I don't want to do is start a game, and then have to leave it because other things are taking precedent or because I lost interest; or it's a lame game (because my soul's not into it) and you, the player, lose interest. But I'll tell ya what. Tell me what kind of character/game/setting you want to play in, and I'll tell ya "yay" or "nay." Don't have high expectations. I'm just curious as to what you may have in mind and if I can make something of it that keeps you and me interested.

Vlad, I'm game for anything or any era or genre. I'll play whatever type of character, even if it's a misfit for the adventure. It's been a long time so I'm not exactly burnt out on any particular genre or character.

But I'll tell ya what. Tell me what kind of character/game/setting you want to play in, and I'll tell ya "yay" or "nay." Ha, I thought you'd never ask... I've got two ideas in mind. One is a Weird Weird Western, so weird that it needs the word Weird written twice before the word Western, something totally off the rails. The setting can be an alternate 1870s Old West America or some point in the distant future where Earth has survived the bomb and is at a point of a New West. My PC is some righter of wrongs (I don't want to be cliche and say bounty hunter or gunslinger, but you get the idea). The second is a sci-fi spy story. That's right, that's not a typo--sci-fi SPY. A hybrid of a sci-fi and a spy tale. My PC is some bloke working for The Company, or a derivative thereof, and has adventures. Set in the future it has all the trappings of a sci-fi story with the added ingredients of a spy story. No problem/no worries if you're not up to running a game. As always, I look at these as the GM doing me a great favor when they do run a game. I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best.

Araman, Were you looking to team up with Darkscar or do something on your own? And I realize you're being polite by saying you're okay with any type of adventure, but I am looking for something specific here. I build-off player ideas; it serves as an ignition to my imagination, and I also believe there is some type of game/character the player is really wanting to play in. I've found answers like "any type of game is fine" generally lead to quick disinterest (I may come up with something that's interesting to me, but not interesting to you). So, let's hear it.

I like Darscar's ideas, especially about the Weird West. I think Sci-Fi Spy might be tougher given that Sig-Int and tech would probably have a greater impact than Hum-Int as gear gets more and more sophisticated. Maybe something unconventional like playing a revolutionary or criminal? I don't think I've ever played a bandit or bad guy as a character before. That might be an interesting challenge, if y'all would not associate my character's behavior with my personality. Or perhaps a flawed hero type... Of course, a post-apocalypse setting would work for me as well.

Okay, I think I have enough to go on. I'll go crawl into my cave and see if I can come up with something. If I do, know that it will be a mission-based adventure, a "quest." It won't be a choose-your-destiny or a "sandbox" type of game where you wander around, discovering things. You'll be working for some entity and tasked with completing an assignment.
I'll let you know something in a few days to a week, somewhere in there.

Araman and Darkscar,
I think I’ve come up with a good, workable idea for a game. In the next few minutes, I’m going to send you both a PM, going into some more detail about the game and what to expect. There’s also some instructions there on the dice roller site we’ll use. Look it over, and if you have any questions, send me a PM or ask here.

Hey, all...just throwing something out there...I really would like to play in a play-by-post Legends of the Untamed West game. I’ve played through my copy of "Blood in the Dust" until its worn, and would like to try another adventure. I know this is a big thing to ask, but if someone would like to run a western, I’d love to play in it. If I get no offers, no biggie, as, like I said, I know it’s kind of a tall order to ask, but if anyone has something ready to go, or wouldn’t mind whipping something into shape, I’m your player. It doesn’t have to be anything large or grand, a quick mini-adventure, 50 posts or less, is fine. Of course, something longer is fine, too. So, if anyone is up to the task, let me know
